Elevators

Hard work and hella patience Pop a bottle it’s a celebration They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators Going up like elevators Going up like elevators They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators Glowing up, I’m elevating So high up from the bottom feel like I’m levitating Remember they used to doubt us, they said we’d never make it Now they can’t stop talking ‘bout us, we blessed and hella favored I stay focused on my grind I don’t address a hater Stay down and wait on my time, the only thing on mind. I know one day I’mma shine Ooh yeah you better know it So much money on my line I hope you ready for it I hope you ready for changes Everything rearranges Strangers wanna be friends Friends they turn into strangers Don’t depend on their prayers Don’t ask ‘em for no favors ‘cause when you down and you out, they try to play ya Just know I’m with ya For the worst or for the better Come on take this picture Let’s remember this forever I was wishing for this moment The thought was keeping me hooked I know how easy it looked But believe me it took Hard work and hella patience Pop a bottle it’s a celebration They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators Going up like elevators Going up like elevators They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators Can somebody, anybody tell me why Why they wanna see me down They don’t wanna see me up They be eyeballing when they see me ‘round Really wanna see me stuck How did it get like this How could you be so mad that I’m on my shit like this You used to be my fam When did it switch like this Tell the truth Is you mad ‘cause you wanna get like this Mad I did what I did like this Mad ‘cause you wanna live like this Mad at me ‘cause I’m lit like this Look what it took me to get like this Hard work and hella patience Pop a bottle it’s a celebration They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators Going up like elevators Going up like elevators They try to hold us down But we keep going up like elevators
